WXPro Integrated Single Station Weather Reporting System
Pharos Marine Automatic Power’s WX PRO Integrated
Single Station Weather Reporting system offers a
rugged, low‐cost, low power, easy to install weather
reporting solution for buoys and platforms.
The unit features rugged, multi‐parameter weather
sensors with state‐of‐the‐art technology:
• Sonic anemometer for wind speed measurement
• Multi‐element sensor for highly accurate and stable
temperature readings
• Fast‐response, capacitive relative humidity sensor
• State‐of‐the‐art barometric pressure sensor
• Internal fluxgate compass for automatic alignment of
wind direction
The WX Pro Weather Station connects to a Datalogger/
MicroServer that can be connected directly to the
AtonisPro AIS Aton Transponder to report weather data
via Message 8 in IMO format. The user can configure the
reporting intervals for Message 8 and ATONIS controls
the on/off times of the datalogger/microserver to keep
power consumption at the lowest possible level.
Water level sensors can be connected to the
Datalogger/Microserver to report tidal data in IMO
Message 8 format.
